Apparently there is a ContextMenu (Cut/Copy/Paste) in the cells of xamdatapresenter. How can i turn it off but keep my custom ContextMenu i created for the grid itself? As an example, see the Feature Browser WPF->xamDataGrid->Data Binding and Interaction->Unbound Fields. When you select the text inside of a cell, you can then right click and you will see a contextMenu w/ Cut/Copy/Paste.
Also, why don't the doesn' Ctrl-X, C or V actually perform the cut copy or paste anyway. Can i remove just the inputGestureText from the menu since it doesn't work anyway?
Hello treehan,
I am just checking if you require any further assistance on the matter.

I would like to simply disable the context menu altogether, hide it completely or something. substituting a different menu is a no-go here. Is there a way to make a context menu specifically for each UnboundField or for all the UnBoundFields? I could do that and just set its Visiblity to Hidden perhaps? But I haven't been able to figure out how to do this
Hello,
I have modified the sample you sent us, so now it has the functionality you want. Basically I created a keyless Style for the XamTextEditor for the bound Fields, where I set the Visibility of the ContextMenu to Collapsed. Also I created a Style with Key and set it to the UnboundField’s Settings’ EditorStyle Property.
Hope this helps you.
Looking at this again, there is still a context menu for the unbound field. Your solution worked for the other fields, but the keyed style you applied to the unbound field doesn't seem to be working, as the default ContextMenu still appears when i select text in the unbound field ????
Since I can't set AllowEdit=False for the unbound field because it will depend on my DataItem.Loc property, I must use IsReadOnly on the xamTextEditor. How can I apply what you've shown me to set Visibility to collapsed when IsReadOnly is true, but Visible when IsReadOnly is false? I tried <Setter Property="ContextMenu.Visibility" Value = "Collapsed" but that seems to just hide the field contents instead. That way I could a context menu that simply shows Cut/Copy/Paste (without shortcuts) and not have it visible when the user isn't supposed to be editing it anyway. Or should i just make two different context menus, one set to collapsed and the other with my cut/copy/paste (with no shortcuts)?
Apparently since AllowEdit cannot be false, IsInEditMode can be true even though IsReadOnly is true, which seems to be the root of my problem since unbound fields that I do have set to AllowEdit=True obviously don't have the context menu problem anyway.
<igDP:UnboundField Name="Place" Label="Place" BindingPath="Place" BindingMode="TwoWay" Column="2" Row="0" Converter="{StaticResource ValueConverter}"> <igDP:Field.Settings> <igDP:FieldSettings CellMinWidth="150"> <igDP:FieldSettings.EditorStyle> <Style TargetType="{x:Type igEditors:XamTextEditor}"> <Style.Triggers> <DataTrigger Binding="{Binding Path=DataItem.LatLon_IsReadOnly}" Value="True"> <Setter Property="IsReadOnly" Value="True"/> <Setter Property="ContextMenu" Value="{StaticResource NoContextMenu}"/> </DataTrigger> <!--<Trigger Property="IsInEditMode" Value="True"> <Setter Property="ContextMenu" Value="{StaticResource NoContextMenu}"/> </Trigger>--> </Style.Triggers> </Style> </igDP:FieldSettings.EditorStyle> </igDP:FieldSettings> </igDP:Field.Settings> </igDP:UnboundField>
If you add only this keyless Style:
<Style TargetType="{x:Type igEditors:XamTextEditor}"> <Setter Property="ContextMenu"> <Setter.Value> <ContextMenu Visibility="Collapsed"/> </Setter.Value> </Setter> </Style>
It will remove the contextmenus from all the Fields, Bound and Unbound.
